Activities at BASIS International School Bangkok run right through the school year, alongside the academic program. Our extracurricular activities cover four areas: sports and athletics, fine arts, STEM, and clubs. Students from Early Years through Grade 12 can take part, and most sessions run after school on our Rama 2 campus.

Families comparing international school activities in Bangkok usually want to know what is on offer beyond the classroom, how often it runs and who leads it. The four pages below answer that for each area.

We treat activities as part of a full education. Alongside the skill itself, students build discipline, teamwork, and the confidence that comes from steady progress. As we grow, we hope to see more of our non-competitive sports become league sports, depending on participation and availability. Go TUSKERS!
